Bridge Fall.... some dude survived

[Soulless Angel]

Some dude jumped off a bridge not far from where I live, onto a main road, can't be more then 50ft, Life changing injuries.
Damn he's screwed, esp as the mental health service here is non exisitent, unless you want a cuppa tea
actually this isn't even 50ft?


on a dark humor side, does anyone wonder what your first thoughts would be if you survived that?
Mine would prob be *Well that didn't go to plan!*

 

[summers]

That couldn't have been a serious suicide attempt. Probably was making a tiktok video or something on a dare.

Wait is that in Portsmouth or something? Ahh someone here posted the name and said watch out for local news why am I getting chills really. I am no where near there but I checked on web and it looks exactly the same? He just posted two days ago I think

He said some name like A30 M20 brigde I don't remember much. Could you tell if it happened in the UK?

 

[freedompass]

Oh man I think I read that thread. He seemed very gung ho about jumping from not very high, I said that's not a chance I'd wanna take. If it's the same guy that's insane

 

[ooglah]

I remember reading that.. I can't find the thread tho.
I hope that isn't him

edit: found it, looks like he was active an hour and a half ago.

Edit:removed the name

You'd be surprised. People get desperate. If it caused serious injury then imo it was a serious attempt

 

[summers]

Not necessarily. There are tons of videos of people doing stupid stuff and getting seriously injured.

Trying to jump into water and trying to jump off a bridge are very different things. 99.999999% of people don't jump off bridges for fun

 

[Wasabi]

My words: «Why the hell am I still here?!»
I feel sorry for him.

Wasn't me, I couldn't jump in the end.

Portadown Hill Road over the A3M in Portsmouth is probably about 90ft. Plenty enough to be fatal.

I think my balcony is higher on the 5th floor. It looks super low. Too bad his skull wasn't run over by a massive truck... Instant mercy...

*Shrieks* he should have jumped head first?

Maybe trying to get splattered by a semi. Also not everyone in the world has the expertise we see here, on the forum.

 

[Sardonia]

Damn, the prospect of suriving a jump from a bridge is scary, the risk of ending up in a wheelchair is pretty significant. I would be very picky with what bridge I would choose for something like that. Maybe the Golden Gate Bridge, but on the other hand it is very well traficked at all times I think, and there are going to be alot of people there keeping their eyes open for anyone looking like he/she's about to jump.

 

[Fadeawaaaay]

I met a homeless guy who did something like that - jumped 30 feet off an on overpass - probably thought he would get run over. He survived uninjured. Seems painful and unreliable. But some people are utterly desperate.

 

[hatehypocrisy]

This method is very risky, if you didn't die, it will only make your life worse, and it will be difficult to have a second chance.

 

[Littlewittlelight]

Oh, noone can do something like that. It must have been I don't know but you are here. Maybe relying on other methods is better. Now the person is in worse situation after this it didn't help them.

 

[FuneralCry]

Jumping sounds like a terrifying method to me and it's beyond horrible how suicide methods can fail. I would never have the courage for jumping anyway but even if I did I would only jump from somewhere that is extremely high.

 

[theboy]

Ufff damn... let's hope the boy is not left with serious after-effects.
